there are lots of other issues. AFAICT HTML is allowed inline in markdown but the flowing inline HTML is interpretted differently depending on implementation

    some markdown text

    <div>
      some
      **inline**
      text
    </div>

    some more markdown text
some will take that as one block. some will process each line separately. some will convert the asterisks ...

HTML inlined into markdown is easily my least favourite feature of markdown. In my opinion it breaks the very point of of MD (namely that it's formatting makes as much sense in a graphical render as it does in a plain text editor).
